A Turkish acquaintance reacts to Osama bin Laden's death.

On Cinco de Mayo I went to a mole festival with friends, and they had invited one of their friends from tango classes, who's Turkish. As I have been, I brought up Osama bin Laden's death to hear what everyone thought, and he said -

1) he thought the U.S. was lying (to which my friends said that even al Qaeda admitted Osama bin Laden had been killed).

2) that Osama bin Laden's wife had been living cooped up in the house for like 3 years, which "is typical Arab".
